If your dropping by because of Chris Quinn's article about Phyllis Tickle, welcome. We are a group that has met in Atlanta for four years now, a local expression of Emergent Village. But we're not a secret club, there's no secret handshake, and we change from season to season based on the folks who pitch in to give the conversation its personallity.We meet the last Tuesday of every month. So our next meeting will be September 30, 2008 from 8-10pm at Tilt Coffee Shop in Castleberry Hill Neighborhood.
Emergent Village is a growing generative friendship among missional Christian leaders seeking to love our world in the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Our dream is to join in the activity of God in the world wherever we are able, so that God’s dreams for our world come true. In the process, the world can be healed and changed, and so can we. Members of emergent hold in common four values and practices that flow from them. In the language of a religious order, we call these four values our order and rule:
- Commitment to God in the Way of Jesus
- Commitment to the Church in All its Forms
- Commitment to God’s World
- Commitment to Each Other

By the Way, the AJC Article says Troy Bronsink is a "former presbyterian minister." THis si not exactly right, i'm just not in a conventional church any more. here's the post: http://churchasart.com/blog/2008/08/30/no-i-have-not-left-presbyterianism/
